The Invitations

Now before we can get to the actual party we need to do the first important step and that is to invite everyone to this awesome event.

Now, depending on your generation, and yes, I will probably show mine here, will determine how you do your invites.

Me, I’m a old school paper invitation in an envelope, put in snail mail with a stamp and all! 🙂

It’s fun to get something in the mail other than bills, am I right?

Not only that they can be a great souvenir.

Plus, it’s something physical they can hang onto, put up on the refrigerator or pin to the command center as a reminder of the upcoming fun!

So, in case you don’t normally do snail mail and you probably don’t have personalized return mailing stickers.

Never fear, I’ve got you covered 🙂

These custom return address labels will make sending your 4th of July party invitations easy!

And now that you have your return address labels you’ll need those awesome invitations, right?
